About One Temenggong

One Temenggong is listed in our directory as a serviced residence. In Johor, serviced residences are often high-rise homes built on commercially zoned land. Compared with a residential condominium, this can affect utility tariffs, quit rent and assessment rates, so it is worth asking about these for any unit you consider. Many buyers and tenants choose this type of property for its self-contained, apartment-style living within a managed building. Layouts and features vary between serviced residences, so look at specific units and current listings to see what is available at One Temenggong at any given time.

Living here: what to check before you buy or rent

Before you commit to a unit at One Temenggong, ask the agent or the building management for the key details in writing. Confirm the tenure and check the title, including whether a strata title has been issued and whether there are any restrictions on transfer. Ask about the monthly maintenance fees and sinking fund, and whether the current owner has any arrears. Find out which facilities residents can use and whether any of them carry extra charges. Always view the actual unit rather than relying on photos. Check the condition of fittings, the water pressure and any signs of leaks. If you are renting, read the tenancy agreement carefully, agree on the deposit and record the condition of the unit when you move in. If you are buying, engage your own lawyer to carry out searches before you sign anything.
